Description

Prime Location Commercial Investment Opportunity – Businesses Unaffected.

The property is situated on Torwood Street in central Torquay, close to the harbour and waterfront. The location forms part of the town’s principle restaurant and leisure area, within convenient reach of the town centre and seafront.  Torquay is one of the principal resorts on the English Riviera, serving a resident population alongside a substantial seasonal visitor market. The harbour and surrounding central area provide a natural focus for dining, leisure and evening entertainment. The property comprises a commercial investment arranged as two separately let premises: a Thai restaurant at ground floor level, together with extensive first floor accommodation and a rear yard and a separate basement wine bar with its own ground floor entrance.   The restaurant is occupied by Jun Jaow Torquay Limited and the basement premises are let to The Hideaway Torquay Ltd.  The investment provides two rental income streams, with the restaurant tenant having recently committed to a new ten-year lease. Both tenants’ businesses are entirely unaffected by the sale.
